Description
Explore Beaufort Renaissance Castle on a guided tour in Luxembourg. Discover the castle's original interiors, learn about its history, and hear about its role in the Battle of the Bulge.
Step inside a castle that remained exclusively inhabited for over 360 years and was never open to the public. During this one-hour guided tour, discover Beaufort Renaissance Castle and its remarkably preserved original interiors, maintained just as the last lady of the castle left them.
Nestled in the picturesque Haupeschbach Valley, just a few steps from the medieval castle ruins, lies one of Luxembourg’s best-kept secrets: Beaufort Renaissance Castle. Since its completion in 1649, the castle has served as a private residence for its owners, as barracks for the soldiers of General de Beck, and, at various times, as an agricultural estate and industrial site.
During the guided tour, discover how the castle survived almost four centuries remarkably intact, which noble families once lived here, and what happened during the Battle of the Bulge in 1944–1945.
